FACS analysis was used to determine the percent interferon (IFN)-gamma-, interleukin (IL)-4-
, IL-10-, and CD30-positive T-cells extracted from adult periodontitis (AP) and …

SUMMARY IL‐2, interferon‐gamma (IFN‐γ), IL‐4 and IL‐6 producing T cells in periodontitis
and gingivitis‐affected human tissues were investigated by immunohistochemistry to clarify …

Cytokines produced by T-cells in periodontal lesions may determine the nature of the
adaptive immune response. Since different antigen-presenting cells (APC) may direct the …

To explore aspects of cellular immune responses in the pathogenesis of periodontitis we
analyzed phenotype and function of peripheral T cells. Two groups of subjects participated …

Elevated numbers of plasma cells are associated with localized and chronically inflamed
gingiva of patients with adult periodontitis. However, only limited information is currently …

Localized and chronically-inflamed gingival tissues of adult periodontitis (AP) are generally
characterized as a hyper-responsiveness of B lineage cells where increased numbers of …

Background: Both the virulence factors of periodontopathic bacteria and the immune
response against them have been involved in tissue destruction observed in periodontal …

T cells are present in the inflammatory infiltrates of periodontal disease lesions and require
antigen presentation by antigen‐presenting cells (APCs). While it is still not known whether …

Periodontal disease is an infection in which destruction occurs at sites remote from the
infection, resulting in pathological pocketing. Intervening between the infection and the …

The purpose of this study was to compare, using cell blot analysis, the association of
gingival tissue mononuclear cells (GTMC) isolated from lesions displaying histories of early …
